Chapter 104 Those Resolute Eyes

The old lady drooped her eyelids and nodded, then said in an old and majestic voice:

"If this matter gets out... do you know what the consequences will be?"

The big man quickly responded repeatedly.

"Don't worry, old lady, if I talk nonsense outside, you can send someone to cut off my tongue."

The old lady nodded in satisfaction, and glanced at everyone again with her sharp eyes.Supported by Nanny Yan, she got up and walked to her dormitory. The crutches slammed heavily on the ground, making a dull sound.

"Okay, I'm tired, I want to rest, you all go back."

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand at Sister Yan.

"Sister Yan, go and supervise their execution. Don't slack off at all..."

After speaking, he waved to Yun Xi again, Yun Xi hurriedly stepped forward to help the old lady, and the two left together.

Lu Mingzhu's eyes were full of jealousy, and she hummed reluctantly.

The eldest lady pulled Lu Mingzhu up, and looked at Second Aunt with vicious eyes, with a vicious smile on the corner of her mouth.

"Second Aunt, let's go. The old lady can't see blood, so let's carry out the execution outside."

With that said, he pulled Lu Mingzhu to leave first.The people in the room left one after another, and gradually became quiet.

In the back room, the old lady took Yun Xi's hand and straightened her messy hair.

"Good boy, are you hurt?"

Yun Xi shook his head, wrinkled his little face and said with lingering fear:
"The man had just wrapped me in a sack when the guards rushed over."

The old lady sighed helplessly, and couldn't help murmuring softly:

"It's fine as long as it's okay... Hey, if your parents were still there, how could they make you suffer so much..."

Yun Xi frowned, watching the old lady mumble indistinctly.She didn't ask carefully, anyway, she wouldn't tell herself.I just concentrated on and held my breath to distinguish those voices, but I still couldn't figure it out.

The old lady felt very sleepy without saying a few words.He sighed that he was old and a little useless.Yun Xi coaxed her playfully, which aroused the old man's heart, and went back to his room.

After thinking about it, he took out a pack of medicinal powder from the medicine box and handed it to Tang Youyou.

"Go and quietly put this thing in Second Aunt's meal."

Tang Youyou took the medicine powder and asked curiously:
"what is this?"

Yun Xi raised her lips, her eyes were cold and clear.

"An antidote that makes her wounds capricious."

So, as long as she can't get out of bed.They can also be clean, and they can let go and do their own things.

A sly smile also flashed across Tang Youyou's eyes, and he turned around and went out to do errands.

Yun Xi calmed down, and lay down on the bed to rest for a while.

……

Huo Haochen returned to the hotel from Lu's residence in the morning, and Shi Yifan was already sitting inside waiting for him.Seeing him coming back, he hurried up to meet him.

"Where did you go? Yesterday your subordinates found out that many mysterious people suddenly appeared in Licheng, and you haven't returned all night. I thought something happened to you..."

With that said, he looked again.This guy looks very energetic, and it doesn't look like anything happened.Shi Yifan narrowed his eyes, and laughed like a thief.

"Didn't you...have a good relationship with that Miss Lu yesterday?"

Otherwise, why is he so refreshed, with the spring breeze blowing on his face.The more Shi Yifan thought about it, the more he took it for granted, the little flame of gossip burning in his body blazed again.

Seeing his old friend looking at him gossipingly, Huo Haochen smiled brightly, with an almost indiscernible gentleness in his voice.

"Well, almost..."

As he spoke, he glanced at Shi Yifan and continued jokingly:
"Anyway, you, a thousand-year-old bachelor, won't understand."

Shi Yifan choked, and couldn't help rolling his eyes... He said it as if you weren't a million-year-old bachelor before.

Huo Haochen lit the cigar and walked to the sofa and half-lyed down, there seemed to be black swirls in his eyes.

"I fought against that wave of people last night, and I almost slipped and got caught accidentally."

Hearing this, Shi Yifan also put away the casual smile on his face.He stepped forward and frowned and asked:
"Have you guessed their details?"

Huo Haochen shook his head, the moves and formations of those people were very strange and difficult to distinguish.

He looked at the sparks flickering on the cigar, and something flickered in his dark eyes.Lang Sheng called two of his subordinates to come in and ordered:

"You go spread the word and pretend to be the person holding the bronze box to attract their attention."

Shi Yifan frowned, and asked hesitantly:

"You mean... they already have doubts about Miss Lu's family?"

Huo Haochen nodded, and recounted the things of the past few days.

"It's estimated that they can't bear it anymore, and they are afraid that they will jump over the wall in a hurry and find trouble with her."

Shi Yifan nodded, and persuaded Huo Haochen to take the things back.Not to mention how precious it is, even if it hurts a little girl like this, it's not good.

Huo Haochen just took a deep breath of the cigarette, then lay on his back on the sofa, without further words.The cigar in his hand sparkled, and the smoke rose to the crystal lamp on the ceiling without a trace.

……

In a military officer's mansion in Licheng, a small black room was full of men in black.Standing in front of him was a tall man in a green military uniform, with a pair of black and shiny military boots.

He turned his back to those people, and his face could not be seen clearly in the dim light.

"The last time our people went to the Lu Mansion to inquire, there was indeed something wrong with that eldest lady, and she was different from the rich ladies in other places... Moreover, when we tracked down that suspicious person yesterday, he was indeed near the Lu Mansion disappeared……"

"Although we couldn't find anything from her that day, I always feel that she must know the whereabouts of that thing."

The man in black behind him reported that the officer didn't speak, but just stood there behind his back.After pondering for a moment, he murmured softly:

"It seems... I have to meet this extraordinary lady in person for a while."

There are flowers opening the room outside the window, full of vitality.

……

The last time I met that street rascal, Yun Xi hadn't bought back her medicinal materials yet.She had no choice but to pick another day, and took Tang Youyou to Lian Shaojie's pharmacy again.

The two of them still brought the same few guards with them this time. Yun Xi saw that they were quite clever, and they might be useful.

A group of people walked to the downtown area, and there seemed to be a lot of people today.Yun Xi escaped the crowd, but was accidentally pushed and shoved, and fell to the side.

The guards behind him followed at a distance, separated by a continuous stream of people.When Yun Xi fell so unexpectedly, they had no time to step forward to help her.

Yun Xi was considering whether to secretly use martial arts to jump up, when in the blink of an eye, a strong and powerful arm wrapped around her waist in time and helped her up.As soon as she turned her eyes, she met a pair of determined eyes.
